    Whose misleading who? I would say that in this case, it would be the people that are not up front about the expected price of a service.

    If tipping is required up front, then include it in the prices (and I don’t mean as an half hidden fee tacked on the announced prices like American businesses started doing).

    American service workers are putting the blame on the wrong people, the only ones scamming them are their bosses.

      So when an employer is misleading you the correct response is to short change the underpaid employee, who will have it come out of their inconsistent, unreliable pay? Can’t relate.

      And you’re absolutely misleading the worker when you come to a place where tipping is expected and then don’t tip. They aren’t being nice to you and paying attention because they’re so enthralled by you, it’s because you’re expected to pay them. If you aren’t, say so.
